Hello everyone. This is Onur Ayaz with your weekly greetings. I hope you’ve all had a wonderful weekend. Right, so let’s get started.

First up, there will be an event called the Children’s Studies 25th Anniversary Social Justice for Children Inaugural Lecture Series this Tuesday, on April 4th. A guest speaker for this event will be Roni Natov, head of our English Counseling Office, who will be presenting on Children’s Literature and the Courage to Imagine. The event will be held at 11:00 AM, 5th floor SUBO. You might discover something new and it’ll be interesting, so definitely turn up if you have the spare time. Bring your friends too. Be sure to have your college IDs with you!

But wait, I have more! Later that day, at 2:15 in the College Library at the Woody Tanger Auditorium, there will be an event called “Listen In/Listen Up! Students Teach the Teachers about Struggle,” which is part of the College President’s “We Stand Against Hate” Series! Here is a nice description of the event:

“Panels of students will share their stories of struggle, what makes them feel vulnerable or unwelcome on campus, and how we can create a more inclusive and nurturing environment at Brooklyn College. Following the panel discussion, the student moderator will lead a wider discussion with student members of the audience.”

Also, you get to see some of your favorite teachers being taught. 😉

Writers’ Circle too will be meeting (as always) this Tuesday and Thursday at 12:30pm, in 2307 Boylan Hall. Feel free to drop by! Our fellow intern Emily will be hosting a science fiction workshop on Tuesday.

But alas, it’s the first week of April! The semester is more than halfway over. If you find yourself looking to do something interesting over the summer, check this out!
